No introduction required here, just bombastic and furious Bay Area hardcore from 1985. The drums are loose and packed with face melting power, and the guitars pick frantically. The geographical influences are obvious in this early version of CHRIST ON PARADE - this demo sounds like the first 12" releases by DRI, CRUCIFIX and MDC all jammed onto the same tape over one another. Some of these songs later appeared on the A Mind Is A Terrible Thing and Sounds Of Nature LPs, but I'm not sure anything can match the awkward teenage power of this demo.
